Ghash—For a taste of real
Cairo, head for this fuul restaurant famous
throughout the city for serving the best beans in town. Fuul
comes with a variety of toppings, salads and bread. Guests
sit outside at tables set up in the street. The place is
open to 4 am and really gets going only after midnight, when
(it seems) all of Cairo is hanging out in the street, eating
fuul and chatting. Shisha (water pipe with
tobacco) and soft drinks served, no alcohol. A little
English is spoken. $. Maraseena Street (Sayeda Zeinab),
about five minutes from downtown by cab. No phone.
